    Lambs lettuce is quick to grow at this time of the year and will grow well under fleece well into the winter. It's pretty pest/disease resistant too. Well worth a try

      Hi Got my allotment as a christmas present from the family, and spent all boxing day just digging. I had a great deal to do, but the other plotters were so helpful, even though i had an empty plot, just some old rhubarb and lots of couch grass ( I am still looking for a rhubarb and couch grass pie recipie) i never went home empty handed.
      So wishing you all you want from your space, and enjoy, some days i just sit and look, watching the couch grass grow...

        Hi Dilly, I don't have a lot of experience with rhubarb but personally I would leave it until it is a bit bigger before shifting it...or at the very least, wait until cooler weather to minimise disruption to it's metabolism.
        Allotment is as allotment does...
